Stormy Day TWO

 

it is not helping and I paid 10 dollars for it 2 weeks ago

continued from Prior Post, Storm Day ,Bullet Points

1. Progressive Insurance notifies they will not renew our homeowners.

2. I call our brokers, the voice says Permanently as does the bright red Permanently Closed on their website.

3. I make a mistake! Comparing quotes online. OY VEY!

4. The dam burst and my cell lights up, with tweets and rings, calls and texts. Bob yells what is wrong with your phone. (he has no phone and hates mine with a passion)

5. I complete one quote form and receive a quote and it is: #4267.00 for year, half the coverage we have that cost 2500.00.  Our house is small and old, 1350 sq ft, and we have had 1 small claim in 35 years in this house. All the time I am filling out info my phone continues and bob keeps yelling until I mute it.

I am pacing, and fretting and having a hissy fit! Bob just keeps saying, we will just not have insurance. (that is another story)

My cell stutters and shakes and I get a text

This is Yada Yada health, your referral has been approved. Please proceed with scheduling your appointment by calling (Dr.Blah Blah at 999-999-999. Please call us if you have any questions at

999-999-8888 Reply STOP to opt out

A. Its my health plan

B. I have nothing pending

C. I call the Dr Office and it is a Cardiologist in MIAMI, 500 miles from me.

I call the 2nd number, Ms Heavy Accent says her name, no idea what it was, and she answers with my health plan name. I question the text and she says your referral is approved. Oy Vey! I know that, i don't have a cardiologist and don't need a referral. She chatters i say repeat that please, and she finally ask for my name and birthday puts me on hold and comes back and says this is to notify you of your referral to Dr. Derm Doc. I say, that is already approved, it a cancer removal. this says the wrong city and a heart doctor. She said you are fine, this is just a notification. I think that i what he said.

I hang up  and go on the patient portal and see the referral is already there and I am safe. 

I hope the heart patient in Miami doesn't die before he/she finds out its OK.

Later that night, I wake up at 2 am, from a nightmare, it concern my deceased best friend that dies last August, a doctor that is putting a needle in my stomach in a theater seat, because I need insulin and I can't go back to sleep.

I leave the bed, take my glasses and kindle and get on the sofa, to read. I find it hard to concentrate because I am PLANNING what to say to MY Doctor office. this is snaffu #3

I also ponder what if my surgery is NOT approved and it is fake and on and on and on.

I glance at the clock and Bob is an hour past his time he gets up, and I think what if he died and I wasn't in bed to know it. Just about that time, he comes down the hall and says "What are you doing? I have been awake for an hour laying still to keep from waking you up. (he takes his hearing aids out and is stone deaf at night) I say, you know I get up at 3, why didn't you sit up and look to see if I was in bed? He says  I did not want to wake you up!

Might I say a 3rd OY VEY?

I sent an email to the doctors office, because I could NOT stand to work my way through the phones.

Sorry, I tried to make it short and I just can't. 

PS I put out a plea on FB for help with Insurance Referrals and got 3 answers and was going to tell that story but I am out of space and time

the storm continues and I may or may not tell The Rest of the story, and the first Broker is a doozy...

At least I know all the insurance brokers are not

Permanently closed. YET

Storms and other storms

this video is the wind on April 13th. No rain, no storm, just winds gusting to 50 for no known reason.  I forgot I created it, but it works well for todays post.

My life feels like this video. Blown this way and that way, and hither and yon!

With two of us Ancients, make that 3, since Beau is about to turn 11, and health issues, Bob has his, I have mine, Beau has his Mama and Daddy are both losing memory cells at a rapid pace, it doesn't take a lot to push me around and up and down. 

I am like a lit stick of dynamite, the red string is burning and every now and then I BURST and Blast and then another one lights and starts to burn. I  feel much like way back when I hit Menopause and Bob tried not to talk to me, and once dared to say it is NOT hot in here.. HA. 

Husbands, Insurance, Husbands, Healthcare, ummmm to be continued when I calm down!

Since Brians Home Forever says we must be Thankful on Thankful Thursday,

I am thankful the tree did not fall on me while I was taking photos with the cell phone ,I am thankful for, and I am thankful for a husband because if not him, who would I yell at?
